This role requires strong technical support experience, operational rigor, and hands-on debugging skills.

• Operational rigor: you've defined SLAs, built dashboards, reported metrics to leadership, and forecast volume and headcount
• Able to work from our San Francisco office 5 days a week
• Strong fluency in docs and developer tooling: Git and GitHub workflows, CI/CD, Markdown/MDX, static sites, APIs and OpenAPI specs, DNS and hosting
• You've deployed AI in a support org (agents, deflection, or AI-assisted workflows) and can show what it changed in the numbers
• Hands-on debugging skills: you can reproduce an issue, read logs and config, and explain the root cause to an engineer or a customer
• 4+ years in technical support, support engineering, or a similar customer-facing technical role, including 1+ years managing a team
• You've used Mintlify or another docs platform, as a customer or on the team

• You can write code (JavaScript/TypeScript or similar) to build internal tools and scripts
• Experience with enterprise requirements such as SSO/SAML, security reviews, and custom domains
• Familiarity with how LLM-based products work (retrieval, prompting, evals), which helps when supporting our AI features
